SOMERVILLE'S 100 BEST BRITISH WALKS

Tall, elegant hardback, slim enough to fit into the walker's pocket, with beautiful line drawn maps for meandering through Salcey Forest in Northamptonshire towards Buckinghamshire, St. David's Head in Pembrokeshire, Castle Carrock and the River Gelt Cumbria, the Ashdown Forest to play Pooh Sticks or Swanwick to Corfe in Dorset, here are paths that will lead you through our golden island of discovery.

Laid by region with over 40 illustrations and area maps, car parks, circular routes, easy-to-follow directions and what to look out for, the volume is a treasury of anecdote, observation and description. 534pp.
